Zayne Posted February 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 or does anyone know a person with good discus for sale that ships? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AquaLife Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 As far as I know, there is a kind of stress enzyme that put the fish(discus) to sleep before shipping internationally. Once the fish is place in fresh water they just wake back up, lol. From what I'm told, it can't be found in NZ. Shipping fry is risky, esp discus.

tracytrout Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I haven't bought discus but have bought other fish from goldfishman and they arrived alive and splashing and have to say they were probably the best baggd fish I've received.....if it's his discus you're buying he will courier to you so what's the problem? :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
